Trump has tried to create a replacement for the UN. The only countries who have joined are smaller countries who felt like they couldn't say "no" to Trump in this moment due to US military and economic power. The logo is a big embarrassment. It explains everything. Here is the BOP's logo next to the UN's logo. The UN's logo tries to downplay the centering of US power and European power. Board of Peace has no pretense of egalitarianism.

I think most Americans would like the first logo more, unfortunately. The projection in the UN logo is an unfamiliar one and I would not be shocked if Trump and his associates struggled to understand what it was. Or felt annoyed by how such a projection forces you to think for a moment. The BOP logo runs to the other extreme. And this requires intentional not just incidental myopia. My home country is acting like a jackass.

Someone should tell him it's much more classy and powerful to call them "ministries" not "boards" boards are for corporations with their board meetings. Give us the "Ministry of Peace" and the "Ministry of Truth"

@futurebird He's certainly bored of truth and has been for many years.

@futurebird BOP's appears to be just a circle-cropped Mercator projection, where the "gridlines" don't actually correspond to anything. The "equator" appears to be more or less the VA-NC border.

@futurebird Ironic that even the logo is not using the Greenland-inflating Mercator projection that's got Trump so excited.

@futurebird also it looks like a Civ III achievement badge. Very “graphic design is my passion”.

@futurebird The board is heavy on the autharitarian side I would say!Of course the logo is gilded! This is the most Trumpian thing ever (except the Fifa peace prize, the second hand Nobel Peace Prize and 95% of everything he does)

@futurebird They would rename, and never ever realise anything.On another hand/foot/appendage of course it is named a board, because it is all about business.
